Vall said he approached the men and asked them to stop, but one of the young men body slammed him to the ground.

“Not only is my candidate being put down, they are physically assaulting me,” Vall said.

Vall was treated by paramedics and did not have to go to a hospital. A friend of Vall’s provided a photo of the alleged attacker’s license plate to sheriff’s deputies.

The assault on Vall was not the only incident involving Trump supporters this week.
